The success of an industry today is evaluated based on its impact and advancements on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. The Forum on Automotive Aftermarket Sustainability (FAAS) is a collaborative endeavour initiated by CLEPA and FIGEFA. It aims to establish a platform where all participants in the automotive aftermarket can exchange ideas, cultivate, and adopt sustainable practices. The goal is to transform the European aftermarket sector into a fully accountable and proactive industry.
This Working Group is preparing a study to assess the CO2 footprint of the automotive aftermarket sector and the CO2 impact of maintaining a vehicle on the road for longer vs. replacing it with a new vehicle.
This Working Group is addressing existing obstacles that hinder the remanufacturing of components through improved knowledge and understanding of this practice while emphasising its significant contribution to the circular economy
